## What it is
A web-based file manager built in AngularJS with Material Design styling, providing a responsive browser interface for navigating, uploading, and managing files. It ships with example backend connectors (PHP, Python, Node) and lets developers implement their own backend via a documented connector API.

## Use cases
- manage files in the browser with a web file manager
- add a file explorer UI to an existing web app
- browse and upload files over FTP from a web interface
- let users pick files for third-party app integration
- provide a mobile-friendly file browser for a server
- copy, move, rename, and delete files remotely via web UI

## When to choose
- you need a ready-made, responsive file manager UI in an AngularJS or legacy web project
- you want a customizable frontend that connects to your own backend via a simple API
- you need multilanguage, mobile-friendly file browsing with upload and permissions support

## When to avoid
- you are starting a modern project - the author recommends the React-based successor react-filemanager
- your stack is not AngularJS-based and you cannot integrate legacy scripts
- you need drag-and-drop or cloud storage connectors, which are unimplemented TODOs
